When does Jardiance’s patent expire?
Jardiance (empagliflozin) is protected by multiple patents covering different aspects of the product (for example, the drug substance, formulations, and method-of-use). Because of that, the practical “end date” depends on which specific patent (or exclusivity right) you mean, not just the original filing year.

When does Entresto’s patent expire?
Entresto (sacubitril/valsartan) also has multiple patents and related protections, so the date an abbreviated new drug or biosimilar-equivalent competitor can launch depends on which protections are still active.

Jardiance vs. Entresto: which one is closer to generic entry?
The closer-to-entry date differs by product because their patent families and remaining exclusivities are not aligned. The fastest way to compare is to look at each product’s remaining “first expiry” and “latest expiry” lines on DrugPatentWatch.com, then compare the final active dates for each patent family. [1][2]
If you’re asking about “exclusivity” vs “patent expiry,” which matters for competition?
Even after a patent expires, regulatory exclusivity and other listed protections can still limit competition. The DrugPatentWatch.com pages typically show multiple protection types rather than a single calendar date, so it’s important to match your question to the specific protection you care about. [1][2]
What do you need to know to get an exact date?
To give a single precise “expires on” date, you generally need the exact patent (or at least whether you mean:
- first patent expiry,
- last patent expiry,
- or regulatory exclusivity expiration).
DrugPatentWatch.com links out to individual patent entries, which makes it possible to pick the right one. [1][2]
